My mom in law introduced me to tomato toast years ago. Her favorite breakfasts are: a Diet Coke and a brownie, or a Diet Coke an a piece of tomato toast. So I guess you can say this is an old family recipe :)
Whenever I can get my hands on tomatoes out of the garden, I make tomato toast. Jake and I make entire meals out of this. He eats four or five, I eat two. If my baby will eat this, maybe yours will too...
Essentials: Fresh tomatoes, mayo, fresh ground pepper, and preferably, kosher salt. It seems silly to post a recipe, but I decided this qualifies as a meal under our Seriously Simple andNew Beginningscollege and missionary meal category.
Hey, don't knock it till you've tried it. WAAAAY better than ramen.

Slice the tomato, thick, about 1/4 inch slices.
Toast the bread.
Spread mayo over bread as soon as it comes out of the toaster.
Lay on two to four thick slices of tomato, depending on size of tomato.
Top generously with fresh ground pepper and salt.

I LOVE tomatoes with mayo on toast! Me and my mom make sandwiches out of it, so simple but so good! Glad to know I am not the only one :) I also love a good brownie for breakfast..I think your mother in law was on the right track ;)

I have grown so many tomatoes this year and my counters are loaded with them right now. Tomato toast sounds great, why have I not heard of it before. I'm so happy that I discovered your blog and this new idea.
